EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling Union Stock Yards in Chicago, Illinois, circa 1941. The image showcases the magnitude of this historic site located on the South Side, spanning an impressive 400 acres between 39th and 43rd Streets, west of Halsted. A true testament to America's agricultural prowess, over 1,000 cars filled with live stock from all corners of the country arrive at these yards daily. Hailing from no less than 22 states across the Union, these animals are brought here for sale and delivery in exchange for spot cash. The sheer scale of this operation is mind-boggling as nearly $2 million worth of live stock changes hands every single day throughout the year. It's a constant flurry of activity as buyers and sellers negotiate deals amidst a sea of livestock. This photograph offers a glimpse into an era when agriculture played a vital role in shaping not only Chicago but also America's economy. The Union Stock Yards served as a hub where farmers' hard work was rewarded with financial transactions that sustained their livelihoods. Preserved through time by Universal Images Group (UIG), this print serves as a reminder of our nation's rich agricultural heritage and its impact on our society.
